    Summary

    The toddler began to cry, and then he started to cough from trying to cry too hard, snot dripping down his face. Another adult came hurrying over to help him to his feet before they went inside to head, presumably, to the nurse’s office.

    Loud, chaotic, dirty. Everything that went against Al-Haitham’s standards.

    “Working here as what?” Kaveh blinked. “Like admin or something? That’s probably quiet and far enough from kids for you. Though—”

    “No,” interrupted Al-Haitham. “I don’t.”

    After getting fired from a prestigious architecture firm, Kaveh moves back to his hometown to raise his five-year-old brother only to find that an old college "acquaintance" is his little brother's kindergarten teacher.

    Summary

    “Don’t care, ‘s long as there’s booze nearby.”

    “What a shining example of fatherhood,” Wade teased. “Reminds me of my own old man. Yeah, I’m sure your kid will turn out juuuust fine.”

    Laura’s grip loosened just enough for Logan to grab a nearby hairbrush and lob it at Wade’s head, smacking him right between his white-out eye-holes.

    -

    Or if Laura was still 10 years old when she met Wade and Logan in the void.

    Summary

    Kaveh begins to doubt his relationships. Do they really want him around? Are they taking pity on his poor soul? Is he just too much?

    One night at the tavern, surrounded by his friends playing TCG, he is hit with a wave of uncertainty. He feels out of place, an observer to the world around him. He becomes dizzy with the thought that maybe they would be happier if he showed himself less and less, maybe even at all. Would they even notice? Maybe it would relieve them.

    Alhaitham would notice. He always notices. When Kaveh attempts to run away, Alhaitham is there.
